The sounds of the winter wind...the morning frost on the windows...the warmth of the fireplace and the beauty of a snowy starlit night, all these images and more await you in Ariel's wonderful Celtic Christmas album 'Wintersong'!
Be transported by Ariel's ethereal voice, Celtic harp, piano and guitar. For this special recording she is joined by Jen Bernard on flute, Marilee Hord on violin, Skip Von Kuske on cello and accompanied on vocals by Lara Michell and Jason Roark.
Her third studio album is overflowing with enchanting new versions of favorite carols like 'Greensleeves', 'Un Flambeau Jeanette Isabelle'(in French and English!) and a very sweet rendition of 'O Holy Night'.
There are also historic Celtic songs such as the lovely Latin 'Cantus/Jesu Kin' which date back to the 8th and 13th century and 'Christ Child's Lullaby' from the Hebrides Islands.
'The Cutty Wren' is an old English Mid-Winter folk song from 1381 which stems from the St. Stephens Day tradition of hunting the wren to welcome good fortune.
You will also find some favorite contemporary holiday songs from Gordon Lightfoot, Loreena Mckennit, John McCutcheon, Steeleye Span and the title track 'Wintersong' written by Ariel which make this an album everyone will love!
This is the perfect music collection for an elegant holiday event, relaxing on the way home after shopping for gifts and simply being calm and reflecting on the magic of the winter season.

One of the best CD's I have ever heard
author: Ian O'Brien
Aerial and I met at Portland's Saturday Market. I admitt, I wasn't into folk music till I heard her sing.
The Song Wintersong.. A while back I was very depressed and thinking about ending it all.. something told me to put on that song,, when it was over I had completely forgotten why I was so depressed. I ended up listening to the entire CD (AGAIN).
Thank You Aerial.. THANK YOU. :-)
Love and Light.
Ian.

Deep Calls To Deep & Every Song Is A Masterpiece
author: Joli Darling
I already reviewed the audio clips of this album on this site but now I actually own the album with the complete song tracks. With a collection of songs like this, one can only be more drawn to the music the more they hear. The songs are hauntingly beautiful, timeless & transcendent. Ariel's voice is like that of an angel & her songs have a signature ethereal quality. I highly recommend Wintersong not only for the holiday season it was created for but also to set a very soft & deep-calls-to-deep kind of mood.
